death bird

There is a saying that is good, as long as you are with the person you want, as long as you do what you like every day, even if you are in hell, you will be heaven; if you can’t do your own happy things every day, even if you are in heaven, you will be hell.

What is hell?

flame?sulfur?devil?disaster?storm?

In fact, these are not. Only those who have been there know what hell is, and what is real pain.Repeating the pain day after day, unable to escape, doing the things you hate the most day after day, and surviving in a dark environment day after day, this is hell.

When Mary was young and at the peak of her strength, she once reached a never-ending agreement with Papa Regba. Mary Lavin made a wish of immortality to Papa Regba, and Lei As a price, Papa Geba asked Mary Lavin to sacrifice a pure soul every year.

After a day of fighting and death, Mary had to drag her tired body to an orphanage, sneaked into the baby room in the early morning sunshine, and stole a child who was only one year old.

Sensing the aura of Papa Regba, Ivan walked all the way to the black area, just in time to bump into this famous black voodoo queen.

"Little wizard, you shouldn't be here."

Mary held the baby and saw that it was Ivan, with a tired expression on her face: "This is the territory of black people, and it is very dangerous for white people to come here, especially for a little wizard like you."

"I followed the breath of Papa Regba, just now, I didn't expect you to sleep."

Ivan dodged, teleported to Mary from a few meters away, looked at the sleeping baby in his hands, and smelled a breath of hell from Mary.

"Damn it, that old monster doesn't even let the child go?"

When mentioning Papa Regba, Mary's face showed unusual anger: "You didn't promise him some damn deal, did you?"

"No."

Ivan shook his head.

Hearing Ivan's words, Mary looked relieved, perhaps because Ivan had saved Mary's people, so Mary had a good impression of Ivan.

"Okay, now you listen to me, leave the black area immediately, and then forget about that old monster Regba, and tell him to die if he comes to you again in the future."

Mary touched Ivan's head, looked at Ivan's puzzled expression, and solemnly asked.

"If I were you, I would choose to leave New Orleans immediately. I advise you as an elder instead of Mary Lavin, not only because of the war between white wizards and voodoo, but also to avoid that damn bastard."

Avoid Regba?

Mary seems to really be doing Ivan's best.Ivan also understood how much trouble it would be to be stared at by a ghost from hell, which was fully reflected in Buffalo.

After saying this, Mary hurried away with the baby in her arms, leaving Ivan alone in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

In fact, since Buffalo's death, Ivan has already felt that something is wrong with him, whether it is the abnormally increased ability, or the ghosts and gods who always haunt him.It feels like a magnet that things will always surround him.

Ivan suddenly didn't really want to go back to Robbie Chaux's school, but wanted to go for a walk alone.

From Thorn Cliff to Witch School, Ivan has always lacked a sense of belonging, just like leaving Thorn Cliff, just because he didn’t want to cause trouble for Sister Jude, so Ivan chose to leave and live with his race, But even so, Ivan's life in the witch community was not very happy.Except for the spooky Fiona who can occasionally bring her a little surprise, everything else is unremarkable.

Thick morning mist blows from the Gulf of Mexico, bringing a salty smell into Ivan's nose.

For a while, Ivan felt a little confused. Most of the children his age were still troubled by the so-called study and the so-called pocket money, but these were all within easy reach for Ivan. The seven magics made those mortals It is a joke to pursue something that is difficult to obtain in a lifetime.

"I need something, something that makes me feel, interesting."

For some reason, Ivan suddenly felt such an extreme longing and emptiness in his heart.

In the early morning Orleans city was quiet and deserted, Ivan suddenly heard some strange sounds, some sounds he had never heard before.

Ivan followed the voices, teleported to the source of the figure, and came to the suburbs, a very special place.

There are all messy tents and RVs here, and a group of weird-looking people are beating here with hammers and hammers, as if they are setting up some kind of camp to die.

Ivan looked far away, only to see a huge sign at the gate of the camp, which read: freakshow (freak show.)

To be honest, Ivan was really scared.In just a few minutes.

This place is even bigger than the Thorn Cliff. . .strange?The place.

A woman who was more than two meters tall smashed a wooden stake that seemed to weigh several tens of kilograms into the ground with a hammer. A handsome young man with lobster scissors hands was using his pair of three-year-old Cigarettes dangling from multiple fingers, and more. . .

Wait, is that a butternut?

A microcephaly patient who was imprisoned in Briar Cliff for accusing him of killing his sister and niece.

"Little Walnut! Come here!"

Ivan was a little surprised to see Little Walnut, and he didn't expect to meet old acquaintances from the east coast in this seaside city on the west coast of the United States.

Little Walnut didn't know who was calling him, but this voice suddenly came out of her heart, she turned her head suddenly, and even fell down, looking very funny.

Little Walnut didn't see anyone, but her footsteps involuntarily walked towards the woods beside the road.

"I...Ivan..."

Little Walnut walked to the side of the road, turned over the branches, and just bumped into Ivan's cute face, she stuttered in surprise in an instant.

"Virtual"

Ivan saw the little walnut who was almost screaming happily, and quickly blocked his mouth: "Why did you come here? I mean the thorny cliff?"

Because Xiao Hutao suffers from microcephaly, she can't speak when she is nervous, so she can only scream happily.Ivan wanted him to read his mind, but all he read was a mess.There is no way, sometimes this ability is used on people who are insane, and it is really difficult to get news.

"Little Walnut, who's there?"

The young man who was a lobsterman saw that little walnut suddenly ran to the edge of the woods and stayed still. He walked over vigilantly and met Ivan's eyes.

Jimmy looked at this white and tender blond boy, sized up Ivan's expensive attire, and patted Little Walnut: "Do you know him?"

"Friend...friend...friend...friend..."

Little Walnut clapped Jimmy's hand excitedly and said.

friend?

This word obviously surprised Jimmy. You must know that freaks are people who are rejected by the world, and Ivan doesn't look like a child who will come into contact with inferior people.

"Jimmy, hello, who are you?"

Jimmy stretched out his other normal hand to say hello to Ivan, and Ivan's hand also reached out and touched Jimmy's hand.

At this moment, a strange thing happened, and Ivan actually saw nothing in front of his eyes.No memories of Jimmy's past came up, no thoughts of Jimmy's present came up, nothing. . . . .

This had to surprise Ivan.You must know that this kind of sky eye is the earliest and most powerful witchcraft awakened by Ivan, but he actually failed on Jimmy.

Who is this freak?

"You can call me Ivan."

Ivan's face was a little surprised, and it fell into Jimmy's eyes. He thought it was the first time he saw a deformed person, so he didn't care.

"Are you...?"

Ivan pointed to the other freaks who were still working there, curiously probing.

"We're a freak show troupe that just decided to come to New Orleans for a while, and they're all my buddies."

After all, Jimmy also pretended to show Ivan Teyi a few freaks who looked particularly frightening.Those who have no lower limbs, those who are only half a meter tall, and those who have women with beards. . . . .

However, these obviously did not scare Ivan, but aroused Ivan's rare interest: "Can I go and have a look? I mean, I have no malicious intentions, just curiosity."

Jimmy obviously liked Ivan because of his calmness and the normal emotion in his eyes.

"Of course, as long as you're not afraid."

"How is it possible, they are all just humans. Why are you afraid?"
